I'm hoping this is going to be the game that puts Sega back on the map in terms of AAA games. It's an important game for Creative Assembly as well. If they get this right, it would really establish them as being Sega's strongest in-house development studio when it comes to both PC and consoles games. Right now they still have an image of just being a studio Sega bought that churns out RTS games for the PC every year.
Good to hear the game has support for the Oculus Rift as well, it's basically a perfect match for this type of game. The impressions from the people that played the game using the Rift seemed to be very positive.
